The irony hurts!

Fans of the simple audition style photosets on StripGameCentral.com will be pleased to hear that they have posted another audition set, this time lovely Maggie being stripped naked in the garden by lucky Owen. I’m not jealous!

Sorry I’m late guys, I just had to stop for food on the way here.

A large corporation recently hired several cannibals.   “You are all part of our team now,” said the HR representative during the welcoming briefing. You get all of the usual benefits and you can go to the cafeteria for something to eat, but please don’t eat any of the other employees.”

The cannibals promised they would not.

Four weeks later their boss remarked, “You’re all working very hard and I’m satisfied with your work.   However, one of our secretaries has disappeared.   Do any of you know what happened to her?”   The cannibals all shook their heads “No.”

After the boss had left, the leader of the cannibals said to the others, “Which one of you idiots ate the secretary?”  A hand rose hesitantly.

“You fool!” the leader continued.   “For four weeks we’ve been eating managers and no one noticed anything.   But NOOOooo, you had to go and eat someone who actually does something!!!”

Yesterday’s StripGameCentral update is another of their wonderful, new-style audition videos. Amber and Maisie are given the task of auditioning their friend Bex, but they use a new approach and poor Bex doesn’t stand a chance of keeping her clothes on.

Finally, scientific evidence of the “beer goggles” effect!

I think everyone must have a weird day every now and again. You know the sort, one of those days when you three old friends you haven’t been in contact with for years all decide independently to get in touch, or you learn a new word and then hear it used repeatedly all day.

Once, years ago, I was catching a train at Paddington Station in London, and saw a very odd looking man on the platform. He had the most alien-like eyes I’d ever seen and very long fingers. To be honest he creeped me out but I ignored it and got on my train. To my utter amazement a few rows down from my seat sat a middle-aged women with very similar eyes and equally long fingers. She stayed on the train all the way to my destination where she too got off.

Standing on the platform was a young woman with the same unnaturally large, oval eyes. I assumed she was waiting for the woman on the train but they walked past each other as if they did not know each other. Since that day I’ve never seen anyone look like that. By the time I got to my destination I was wondering if aliens were walking amongst us!

Well today was another weird day. I was sat at my computer desk this morning, typing away when a large magpie flew straight into glass of the window beside and scared the cr*p out of me. That in itself isn’t that weird, unusual and embarrassing but little more.

However, just after lunch it happened again. Now I have no way of knowing if it was the same magpie or a different bird, but the bird smacked right into the middle of the glass again, and I think I jumped even higher than the first time.

Anyway, I’d basically forgotten about the magpie incidents until much later in the evening, after dark, when there was a sudden, loud cat scream followed by an almighty bang on the window. I opened the blind just in time to see a cat scrabble to  its feet and scamper off across the lawn.

I switched on the exterior light and went outside, only to find that top inch or so of the garden fence, where it meets the back of the house near the window, was smashed off with small pieces of wood scattered 6-8 feet into my garden! Is someone catapulting animals at my office window? What the heck is going on?!

What were Panasonic thinking of when they came up with this little example of modern technology?

Basically it’s a remote control made out of a soft, flexible, flesh-like gel. When the device is switched off it look as it does in the photo above but when switched on it emanates a soft light from within and the centre of the device slowly rises and falls to simulate breathing. Now is it just me getting a little creeped-out by this so far?

But the experience doesn’t stop there. Move your hand near the device and it stops “breathing” and quickly becomes rigid ready for action. As you touch it the internal light goes out.

My guess is that this technology is not going to catch on in the home audio/video market but might be very popular in another arena.

StripGameCentral.com’s latest update sees new girl Abbi play Strip Sudden Death against Tracey. I have to admit I love the sudden death games. It’s that added embarrassment for the loser of having to strip completely naked while the other player gets to stay fully dressed.
